My candidates for the upcoming elections.

Wednesday, March 3, 2010

Remember a few months ago, I blogged about who I'm voting for? Well, there were some of them whom I thought I was sure of -- particularly Liza Maza and Satur Ocampo. However, after they've finally decided to be guest candidates under Money Manny Villarroyo's party, I've decided to drop them. Also, I couldn't believe that someone who used to hate Marcos with a passion would run under the same banner as his son. Oh well. That's politics for you. 

The good  thing about my posting that blog, however, was that some candidates actually made an effort to approach me so that I could get to know them better. Alex Lacson (whom I am most sure of voting!), Ruffy Biazon, and to some extent, TG Guingona, made their plans known to me. I felt that my own vote counts and considering that they couldn't really reach every single Filipino, I was siquite fortunate to have had that opportunity to ask them personally about certain aspects of their programs  current engagements. I've also done my research on Sonia Roco, Martin Bautista and Yasmin Busran-Lao. I'm voting for them :) Sonia Roco on the grounds of women empowerment, Martin Bautista because he has the best program for health (considering, of course that he's a doctor), and Yasmin Busran-Lao because I believe that in order to achieve true peace in Mindanao, they need a representative in the legislative process. :) 

I'm not voting for Danny Lim, though. So it's not exactly SLAMAT LORRRD. And yes, I'm under voting for senate and councilors.
So here's my almost final list. 

  • President: Noynoy Aquino
  • Vice President: Mar Roxas
  • Senators 
    • Sonia Roco
    • Neric Acosta 
    • Martin Bautista 
    • Alex Lacson 
    • TG Guingona
    • Yasmin Busran-Lao
    • Serge Osmena (guest candidate) 
    • Ruffy Biazon
    • Ralph Recto 
    • Risa Hontiveros 
    • Frank Drilon
  • Mayor: Herbert Bautista
  • Vice Mayor: Joy Belmonte
  • Congresswoman: Vivienne Tan
  • Councilor
    •  Sep Juico
  •  Party list: None!
And yes, Sep is the only candidate I'm considering so far. The others seem a little too trapo for me. At least I'm confident in these choices.

And yes, halos lahat LP. Haha! :)

My candidates so far...

I'm back! Haha. It's been a long time! :P 

Oh well.  I may have not been blogging here, but I've been blogging elsewhere. 

Anyway, my computer is busted so I do not know how regularly I can maintain this. In the few times that I could surf the net, I found a list of the candidates I will support/vote for in 2010. I am basing it on my own principles, party affiliation, priority issue, character, integrity, track record, platform and all other qualifications that I deem worthy of the position. Those with asterisk may still be changed, otherwise, I am almost 100% sure of everyone else :)



Btw, if you know where I could get the list of councilors running in the 1st district of Quezon City, please let me know. Thanks :D
